Hi,

        I've noticed that on the machines I've set up with RH7.0 a huge
chunk of the memory is blown (like 100Mb as reported by free or top)
before I start doing anything - even before I start X.  Is this 'cos the
stock kernel has too much extra compiled in or should I be looking
elsewhere? No processes reported by ps seems to be all that huge - are
there any prettier tools I can use analyse memory usage (à la IRIX
gmemusage)?  Any pointers appreciated.

Brian
